Many people might have different interpretation on a thing. different angle & come from diff experience & condition. Many variables involved.

So for me, with some biking experience... X country means = go travel about with anything u can grab on, but to cover details & experience true state of natures & even cultures,, biking will be the best means.

As they cover most area. ( almost everywhere). U can go here & there, 70% ride on & 30% pikul on you.. or any other combination.
Somehow the bike will help & let u enjoy the area better. what do u think?? u decide..

Last weekend.

Wang Kelian to a village in Satun & N Back. Beautiful scenery. & if i travel by my mother trucker.. ill cover more area but.. less detail.

He He HE.. it was fun going through those nature rich country side like scene....SubhanaAllah.
